Barber is playing

After missing last week’s game at Pittsburgh with toe and calf injuries, Marion Barber is back.

No word yet, though, on whether he’ll start. Considering he’s still banged up, the Cowboys could go with rookie Tashard Choice, who was so impressive against the Steelers, rushing for 88 yards on 23 carries and catching five passes for 78 yards.

The Giants won’t have injured DT Fred Robbins, whose play in the middle is a major reason why they’re No. 5 in the league in rush defense.
